Default BIS Outage in USA?
Sometime in the last four hours my phone has not been getting email. It also will not send/receive BBM. I'm on Sprint out of Chicago. Is anyone else having problems, with Sprint or otherwise? Thanks!

Yeah..my bbm is sporadic at best. Got a message from my wife that was 2 days old. Was conversing with a friend in the UK and they're barely going through..

I'm on ATT in NJ and same thing. I can obviously view through the native browser. But no apps are updating and no BBM. Seems to be a huge BIS outage.

Update: It was my home wifi network. Once I killed wifi on my Torch, emails and BBMs flooded in. All my apps updated as well. Sorry for the scare.

Has to be coincidental because my BBM was down..and no emails either.. Now its awfully slow but things are going through. So it was YOUR ROUTER causing the problem!!!

Tsk..tsk..

I actually had to have my service books re-sent and re-register my device and now it's working fine. SO I don't know what actually happened, but all is working now.

I noticed BIS and other abnormalities this morning, too. My yahoo and msn instant messengers were signed out, and I couldn't sign in till I rebooted. Then five emails came right away after rebooting. Then I sent some test emails from my computer, and they didn't come. I shut off wifi now to see if the situation improves. I'm on Sprint.
